1. Profile of DeA Capital S.p.A.

With an investment portfolio of around EUR 900 million and assets under management of over EUR 10,600 million, DeA Capital S.p.A. is one of Italy’s largest alternative investment operators. The company, which operates in both the Private Equity Investment and Alternative Asset Management businesses, is listed on the FTSE Italia STAR segment of the Milan stock exchange, and heads the De Agostini Group in the area of financial investments. In the Private Equity Investment business, DeA Capital S.p.A. has "permanent" capital, and therefore has the advantage – compared with traditional private equity funds, which are normally restricted to a pre-determined duration – of greater flexibility in optimising the timing of entry to and exit from investments. In terms of investment policy, this flexibility allows it to adopt an approach based on value creation over the medium to long term. In the Alternative Asset Management business, DeA Capital S.p.A. – through its subsidiaries IDeA FIMIT SGR and IDeA Capital Funds SGR – is Italy’s leading operator in real estate fund management and private equity funds of funds programmes, respectively. The two companies are active in the promotion, management and value enhancement of investment funds, using approaches based on sector experience and the ability to identify opportunities for achieving the best returns. As Alternative Asset Management focuses on managing funds with a medium-term to long-term duration, it generates cash flows that are relatively stable over time for DeA Capital S.p.A. This, in turn, enables the company to cover the typical investment cycle of the private equity investment sector. PRIVATE EQUITY INVESTMENT

Since the beginning of 2013, as in previous years, the company has continued its communications campaign, and took part in the Milan Star Conference in March 2013. As well as one-to-one meetings with institutional investors, a plenary presentation was also held on this occasion, to illustrate in detail new developments relating to subsidiary IDeA FIMIT SGR; the presentation is available to all stakeholders on the DeA Capital website. Since the beginning of the year, the company has also held meetings and conference calls with institutional investors, portfolio managers and financial analysts from Italy and abroad.

The research prepared by these intermediaries is available in the Investor Relations section of the website www.deacapital.it. In December 2008, the DeA Capital share joined the LPX50® and LPX Europe® indices. The LPX® indices measure the performance of the major listed companies operating in private equity (“Listed Private Equity” or LPE).

The DeA Capital share is also listed on the GLPE Global Listed Private Equity Index, the index created by Red Rocks Capital, a US asset management company specialising in listed private equity companies. The index was created to monitor the performance of listed private equity companies around the world and is composed of 40 to 75 stocks.

4. Significant events in the first quarter of 2013

The significant events that occurred in the first quarter of 2013 are reported below. Private equity funds – paid calls/reimbursements

In the first quarter of 2013, the DeA Capital Group increased its investment in the IDeA I FoF, ICF II, IDeA OF I and IDeA EESS funds following total payments of EUR 12.6 million (EUR 0.3 million, EUR 5.7 million, EUR 4.5 million and EUR 2.0 million respectively). At the same time, the DeA Capital Group received capital reimbursements totalling EUR 6.6 million from the IDeA I FoF and ICF II funds (EUR 5.5 million and EUR 1.1 million respectively) to be used in full to reduce the carrying value of the units.

Loan agreement with Mediobanca – use of the revolving line On 15 January 2013 the DeA Capital Group made further use (EUR 20 million) of the revolving credit line with Mediobanca – Banca di Credito Finanziario S.p.A., bringing its overall use to EUR 40 million. The use of this loan brings the Group's total loans from Mediobanca to EUR 120 million, including the previously existing bullet line of EUR 80 million. Note that the above-mentioned lines are due to be repaid via a single payment on 16 December 2015, although DeA Capital S.p.A. has the option to make full or partial early repayments during the term of the loan.

Purchase of IDeA SIM S.p.A. shares and subsequent liquidation of the company

On 25 February 2013, in compliance with the provisions of various agreements reached with the former CEO of IDeA SIM, DeA Capital S.p.A. acquired the shares held by IDeA SIM, equal to 30% of its capital, bringing its investment to 95% of the company’s capital. The price paid was EUR 79 thousand. On 11 April 2013 the shareholders’ meeting of IDeA SIM voted to convert the company and rename it IDeA Consulenza S.r.l., and at the same time put it into liquidation.

Acquisition of a shareholding in IDeA FIMIT SGR On 27 February 2013, DeA Capital S.p.A. signed an agreement with Inarcassa to acquire shares from the latter representing 2.98% of the capital of IDeA FIMIT SGR for a price of around EUR 5.9 million; financial equity instruments issued by IDeA FIMIT SGR and held by Inarcassa were excluded from the sale. The deal, that brought DeA Capital Group’s stake to 64.28%, was closed on 29 April 2013, once the pre-emptive rights had expired.

IRE capital increase On 19 March 2013 the IRE shareholders’ meeting approved a capital increase reserved for the company’s CEO, to acquire a stake of 3.75% in the company, for a payment of approximately EUR 151 thousand, equal to a pro-rata portion of the shareholders’ equity.

Equity investments in associates

- Santé (Parent Company of GDS)

Headquarters: France Sector: Healthcare Website: www.generale-de-sante.fr Investment details: On 3 July 2007, DeA Capital S.p.A. finalised the purchase, through its wholly-owned subsidiary DeA Capital Investments, of a 43.01% stake in Santé S.A., the Parent Company of Générale de Santé S.A., both directly and through Santé Dévéloppement Europe S.A.S. At 31 March 2013, the DeA Capital Group's stake was 42.89% (i.e. 42.99% in economic terms).

Brief description: Founded in 1987 and listed on the Eurolist market in Paris since 2001, Générale de Santé is a leading player in the private healthcare sector in France with revenues of about EUR 2 billion at end-2012. France is the second largest country in Europe in terms of annual healthcare expenditure after Germany. Its healthcare system is one of the most advanced in the world, is still heavily fragmented and is marked by the presence of numerous independent hospitals. The company has approximately 19,400 employees and 106 clinics in total. In addition, it is the main independent association of doctors in France (over 5,000 doctors). Its activities include medicine, surgery, obstetrics, oncology and radiotherapy, mental health, subacute pathologies and rehabilitation. The company operates under the following names: Générale de Santé Cliniques (acute care), Médipsy (psychiatry), Dynamis (rehabilitation) and Généridis (radiotherapy). The investment in Santé, which is reported under “Investments in associates”, is valued at approximately EUR 229.6 million in the consolidated financial statements to 31 March 2013 (EUR 226.1 million at 31 December 2012). The change compared with the figure reported at 31 December 2012 is attributable to the net profit of EUR 3.1 million for the period combined with other increases in equity of EUR 0.4 million (largely due to the increase in fair value of interest rate swaps taken out to hedge the interest rate risk on debt exposure).

Net financial debt (773) (862) -10.4% With regard to GDS’s operating performance, revenues in the first quarter of 2013 declined compared with the previous year (-3.5% as reported or -1.3% on a same structure basis, i.e. excluding the impact on the 2012 figures of the clinics sold during the year), mainly owing to the fact that there were two fewer working days than in the same period of 2012. The reduction in revenues versus 2012 was largely reabsorbed at operating profit level (EBITDA broadly stable) thanks to the continuous improvement in operating efficiency, mainly in relation to the management of purchase costs and personnel. The net financial position was broadly stable (EUR -773 million at 31 December 2012 compared with EUR -769 million at 31 December 2012), as operating cash flow was sufficient to cover company interest payments. As regards price changes, on 1 March 2013, the authorities adjusted tariffs for services in the medicine, surgery and obstetrics sector downwards by 0.56% compared with the previous year. It should be noted, however, that as stated in the 2012 annual financial statements, the many government initiatives to support economic activity, such as the package of measures to boost the competitiveness of French companies (which includes, inter alia, the competitiveness and employment tax credit, CICE) may partially offset the unfavourable price trend. To tackle the revenues trend described above, GDS is continuing with the process of reorganising the company into “hubs” (chains of clinics that optimise provision of the service by tailoring it to the requirements of the relevant geographical area), which in the medium to long term, is expected to lead to growth at the top line and in operating efficiency, and cost-saving initiatives focused on important categories of expenditure, which will potentially become effective more quickly.

- Sigla Luxembourg (Parent Company of Sigla)

Headquarters: Italy Sector: Consumer credit Website: www.siglacredit.it Investment details: On 5 October 2007, DeA Capital Investments finalised the acquisition of a stake (currently 41.39%) in Sigla Luxembourg, the holding company that controls Sigla, which operates in Italy and provides consumer credit for non-specific purposes. Brief description: Sigla, which is recorded in the special list pursuant to art. 107 of the T.U.B. (Italian consolidated banking law) with effect from 31 March 2011, specialises in personal loans and "salary-backed loans". It is a benchmark operator in the provision of financial services to households, and operates throughout Italy, chiefly through a network of agents. The company’s product range of personal loans and salary-backed loans was expanded in 2010 to include the servicing of portfolios of unsecured non-performing loans (personal loans and credit cards). The investment in Sigla Luxembourg, which is recorded under “Investments in associates”, was worth around EUR 12.1 million in the consolidated financial statements to 31 March 2013 (EUR 12.3 million at 31 December 2012). The change compared with 31 December 2012 is due to the loss made in the period.

However, it should be noted that, in partial mitigation of this performance, the monthly decline in the granting of salary-backed loans that had lasted throughout the whole of 2012 gave way in the first quarter of 2013 to renewed month-on-month growth, attributable to the fact that statutory measures intended to restructure lending channels have started to take effect (inter alia: agents’ obligation to stipulate one-firm agreements, with the consequent concentration of practices on a limited number of larger partners such as Sigla). In an environment where the difficulties associated with both the ongoing effects of the economic crisis on the propensity to spend and the consequent deleveraging requirements of

lending banks continue to be felt, Sigla - one of the few remaining operators in the sector that is independent from banks - is gradually focusing its business model on its role as a link in the distribution chain for salary-backed loans. In this way, it aims to supplement the direct distribution channel provided by the banks. and to act as a hub for agents in the territory, the size of which does not facilitate the management of an increasingly complex regulatory framework. At the same time, ahead of a stronger recovery in lending volumes, the company is continuing to focus on the gradual reduction of operating risks (specifically, it has recently started to pay out personal loans on behalf of banks, in contrast to its original direct lending approach, and has created a without-recourse salary-backed product) and on continuously improving the efficiency of the structure.

Equity investments in other companies

- Kenan Investments (indirect Parent Company of Migros)

Headquarters: Turkey Sector: Food retail Website: www.migros.com.tr Investment details: In 2008, the DeA Capital Group acquired about 17% of the capital of Kenan Investments, the company heading the structure to acquire the controlling interest in Migros. Brief description: Migros was established in 1954, and is the leading company in the food retail sector in Turkey with a share of about 34% in the organised retail market. Growth in the food retail sector in Turkey is a relatively recent phenomenon, brought about by the transition from traditional systems such as bakkals (small stores typically run by families) to an increasingly widespread organised distribution model driven by expansion and the modernisation process under way in Turkey. The company has a total of 882 outlets (at 31 December 2012) with a total net sales area of approximately 852,000 square metres. Migros is present in all seven regions of Turkey, and has a marginal presence in Kazakhstan and Macedonia. The company operates under the following names: Migros, Tansas and Macrocenter (supermarkets), 5M (hypermarkets), Ramstore (supermarkets abroad) and Kangurum (online store). The equity investment in Kenan Investments is recorded in the consolidated financial statements to 31 March 2013 at EUR 239.8 million (compared with EUR 223.6 million at 31 December 2012). The increase of EUR 16.2 million was due to the rise in the value of Migros shares (TRY 22.65 per share at 31 March 2013, compared with approximately TRY 21.5 per share at 31 December 2012, and the strengthening of the Turkish lira against the euro (2.31 TRY/EUR at 31 march 2013 versus 2.36 TRY/EUR at 31 December 2012). The effect on the DeA Capital Group’s NAV of this change in fair value was partially offset by the provisioning of estimated carried interest, to be paid to the lead investor, BC Partners, based on the total capital gain.

Net financial debt (1.465) (1.611) 9%* Awaiting publication of the data of the first quarter 2013 - the data for year 2012 are provided With regard to the macro-economic environment, the Turkish economy recorded GDP growth of around +2.2% year-on-year in 2012; the slowdown in economic growth (from a rate of +8.8% in 2011) helped the country to reduce its current account deficit, which contributed to the raising of its country rating to investment grade for the first time by Fitch last November. This in turn led to a stabilisation in the exchange rate. The food retail sector in Turkey remained buoyant in 2012, with sustained growth in commercial space (+9.6%) and the supermarket segment (+9.2% yoy), which maintained its dominant position. In the first quarter of 2013, there were important announcements in the sector, with DiaSa, Turkey’s fourth largest discount chain, to be acquired by the new owners of discount chain Şok, placed third in the same ranking, and the acquisition by the Sabanci Group of the majority stake of Carrefour-Turkey, joint venture between the Sabanci Group and Carrefour (which now holds a minority stake). In terms of Migros’ operating performance, revenues grew by 12.7% in 2012, compared with 2011 (the scope of activities for which does not include the discount division sold in August 2011), driven by the expansion of the sales network (137 new supermarkets were opened in 12 months), accompanied by more modest growth in EBITDA, and broadly stable operating profit. Net profit increased, due to the revaluation of the debt component in euro following the rise of the Turkish lira. Note that Migros has confirmed its intention, for the medium term, to maintain a sustained rate of expansion of its network, by opening between 100 and 150 new supermarkets a year, with a focus on areas of 150-350 square metres (with a particular emphasis on fresh products, a growing proportion of private label products and a much broader choice than offered by discount stores), as well as one to two hypermarkets each year. This growth strategy has led the company to issue guidance of double-digit revenue growth and an EBITDA margin within the range of 6-6.5% for 2012-2013.

capital increase, the stake held by IDeA OF I was diluted to 9.21%. On 2 August 2012, IDeA OF I’s decision not to subscribe, on a pro-rata basis, to a further capital increase led to a dilution in its holding to 3.68%

Headquarters: Italy Sector: Alternative Asset Management - Real Estate Website: www.ideafimit.it Investment details: IDeA FIMIT SGR is the biggest independent real estate asset management company in Italy, with around EUR 9.4 billion in assets under management and 31 managed funds (including five listed funds). This puts it among the major partners of Italian and international investors in promoting, creating and managing closed-end mutual real estate investment funds. IDeA FIMIT SGR undertakes three main lines of business:

the development of mutual real estate investment funds designed for institutional clients and private investors

the promotion of innovative real estate financial instruments to satisfy investors’ increasing demands

the professional management (technical, administrative and financial) of real estate funds with the assistance of in-house experts as well as the best independent technical, legal and tax advisors on the market.

The company has concentrated its investments in transactions with low risk, stable returns, low volatility, simple financial structures and, most importantly, an emphasis on real estate value. In particular, the asset management company specialises in "core" and "core plus" properties, but its major investments also include important "value added" transactions.

Due in part to successful transactions concluded in recent years, the asset management company is able to rely on a panel of prominent unit-holders consisting of Italian and international investors with a high standing such as pension funds, bank and insurance groups, capital companies and sovereign funds. On 1 July 2012, the deed of transfer signed by IDeA FIMIT SGR and Duemme SGR for the business division comprising mutual real estate investment funds managed by Duemme SGR (a subsidiary of the Banca Esperia Group specialising in asset management services) became effective.

Financial Review - Income statement

The Group reported a net profit of approximately EUR 3.1 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared with a net loss of EUR 0.9 million in the same period of 2012. In light of the deconsolidation of the investment in Soprarno from the fourth quarter of 2012 (following the sale of the controlling stake), Soprarno is currently valued at equity; in order to provide a like-for-like comparison between the first quarter of 2013 and the same period in the previous year, the results for the latter period have been restated with Soprarno valued at equity. The comments below relate to the restated figures. Revenues and other income break down as follows:

- Alternative Asset Management fees totalling EUR 19.4 million - a contribution from investments valued at equity of EUR +2.4 million (EUR +5.1 million

in the same period of 2012), due to the investment in Santé (around EUR +3.1 million) and the investment in IDeA OF I (EUR -0.5 million)

- other investment income, net of liabilities, totalling EUR +1.4 million (EUR +0.3 million in the same period of 2012).

Operating costs totalled EUR 18.7 million (EUR 20.4 million in the same period of 2012), of which EUR 15.4 million was attributable to Alternative Asset Management, EUR 0.7 million to the Private Equity Investment business and EUR 2.6 million to holding company activities. Alternative Asset Management costs include the effects of the amortisation of intangible assets, totalling EUR 3.0 million, recorded when a portion of the purchase price of the investments was allocated. Financial income and charges, which totalled EUR -6.7 million at 31 March 2013 (EUR -2.2 million in the same period of 2012) mainly relate to income generated from cash and cash equivalents, financial charges and income/charges on derivative contracts. The total tax impact for the first quarter of 2013 (EUR -2.6 million, compared with EUR -3.5 million in the same period of 2012) is the combined result of taxes of EUR 3.0 million due in respect of Alternative Asset Management activities, tax credits of EUR 0.7 million relating to the Private Equity Investment business and taxes of EUR 0.3 million due in respect of holding activities. Of the total consolidated net profit of EUR 2.9 million, about EUR +2.6 million was attributable to the Private Equity Investment business, around EUR +3.6 million to Alternative Asset Management and approximately EUR -3.4 million to holding company operations/eliminations.

Financial Review - Statement of Performance - IAS 1

Comprehensive Income or the Statement of Performance (IAS 1), in which performance for the period attributable to the group is reported including results posted directly to shareholders' equity, reflects a net positive balance of approximately EUR 21.7 million compared with a net positive balance of EUR 34.0 million in the same period of 2012. This comprised:

net profit of EUR 3.1 million recorded on the income statement profits posted directly to shareholders’ equity totalling EUR 18.6 million.

As regards the latter, the largest component was the increase in fair value of Kenan/Migros. The increase of EUR 16.2 million compared with 31 December 2012 in the value of this equity investment was due to the rise in the value of Migros shares (TRY 22.7 per share at 31 March 2013 versus approximately TRY 21.5 per share at 31 December 2012), and the strengthening of the Turkish lira against the euro (2.31 TRY/EUR at 31 March 2013 versus 2.36 TRY/EUR at 31 December 2012). The effect of this change in fair value on the DeA Capital Group’s NAV was partially offset by the provisioning of estimated carried interest of around EUR -14.5 million, to be paid to the lead investor, BC Partners, based on the total capital gain.

Interim Management Report to 31 March 2013

48

At 31 March 2013, group shareholders’ equity was approximately EUR 744.2 million, compared with EUR 723.1 million at 31 December 2012. The increase of about EUR 21.1 million in group shareholders' equity in the first quarter of 2013 was chiefly due to the reasons already discussed in the Statement of Performance - IAS 1 (EUR +21.7 million) and to the effects of the share buy-back plan (EUR -0.9 million).

Financial Review – Net financial position

At 31 March 2013, the consolidated net financial position was approximately EUR -120.8 million, as shown in the table below, which provides a breakdown of assets and liabilities and a comparison with the same figures at 31 December 2012: Net financial position Change(EUR million)Cash and cash equivalents 52.3 29.2 23.1Available-for-sale financial assets 5.1 7.7 (2.6)Financial receivables 28.1 27.4 0.7Non-current financial liabilities (162.2) (142.8) (19.4)Current financial liabilities (44.1) (45.1) 1.0TOTAL (120.8) (123.6) 2.8

31.03.2013 31.12.2012

The change in consolidated net debt at 31 March 2013 was due to the combined effect of the following factors: change in the net financial position of Alternative Asset Management companies of EUR

+12.1 million (related to IDeA FIMIT SGR’s cash flow from operations); a change of EUR -9.3 million in the net financial position of holding companies, of which

EUR -6.2 million relate to investments net of capital distributions from funds and EUR -0.9 million to the outlay for the share buyback plan.

The company believes that the cash and cash equivalents and the other financial resources available are sufficient to meet the requirement relating to payment commitments already subscribed in funds, also taking into account the amounts expected to be called up/reimbursed by these funds. With regard to these residual commitments, the company believes that the funds and credit lines currently available, as well as those that will be generated by its operating and financing activities, will enable the DeA Capital Group to meet the financing required for its investment activity and to manage working capital and repay debts when they become due. The following points relate to the individual items that make up the consolidated net financial position:

”Non-current financial liabilities” mainly include EUR 120.0 million relating to the use of the credit line provided by Mediobanca, EUR 12.2 million relating to the use of the credit line granted to IDeA FIMIT SGR by Banca Intermobiliare di Investimenti e Gestioni S.p.A., EUR 26.0 million in respect of the vendor loan to acquire the tranche of mezzanine bonds issued by SDE

“Current financial liabilities” chiefly include the amounts still to be paid for the acquisition of 30% of FARE Holding, now DeA Capital Real Estate (expiry: December 2013).

6. Other information Transactions with parent companies, subsidiaries and related parties

 

Transactions with related parties, including intercompany transactions, were typical, usual transactions that are part of the normal business activities of Group companies. Such transactions are concluded at standard market terms for the nature of the goods and/or services offered. With regard to transactions with parent companies, note the following:

1) DeA Capital S.p.A. signed a service agreement with the controlling shareholder, De Agostini S.p.A., for the latter to provide operating services in the administration, finance, control, legal, corporate and tax areas.

This agreement, which is renewable annually, is priced at market rates, and is intended to allow the company to maintain a streamlined organisational structure in keeping with its development policy, and at the same time to obtain adequate operational support.

2) DeA Capital S.p.A. and IDeA Capital Funds SGR have adopted the national tax

consolidation scheme of the B&D Group (the Group headed by B&D Holding di Marco Drago e C. S.a.p.a., the Parent Company of De Agostini S.p.A.). This option was exercised jointly by each of the two companies and B&D Holding di Marco Drago e C.

Introduction to the Notes to the Accounts Structure and content of the Interim Management Report to 31 March 2013 The Interim Management Report to 31 March 2013 (the Report) constitutes the document stipulated by art. 154-ter of the Testo Unico della Finanza law (TUF). Information regarding the company’s operating performance and financial position is prepared in accordance with the valuation criteria and measurement criteria set out by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Commission pursuant to the procedures contained in art. 6 of Regulation (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and Council of 19 July 2002. The accounting principles used in the report do not differ from those used at 31 December 2012 or 31 March 2012. The Report comprises the following consolidated financial statements – the Statement of Financial Position, the Income Statement, the Statement of Comprehensive Income (Statement of Performance – IAS 1), the Cash Flow Statement, the Statement of Changes in Shareholders' Equity – and these Notes to the Accounts; it is also accompanied by the Interim Report on Operations and the Statement of Responsibilities for the Interim Management Report. The consolidated financial statements in the Report have not been audited by the independent auditors. Information regarding the company’s operating performance refers to the first quarter of 2013 and the first quarter of 2012; information relating to the statement of financial position refers to 31 March 2013 and 31 December 2012. The consolidated financial statements have the same format as those presented in the financial statements to 31 December 2012. As permitted by IAS/IFRS, the preparation of the Report required the use of significant estimates by the company's management, especially with regard to fair value assessments of the investment portfolio (equity investments and funds). These fair value assessments were determined by directors based on their best judgement and estimation using the knowledge and evidence available at the time the Report was prepared. However, due to objective difficulties in making assessments and the absence of a liquid market, the values assigned to such assets could differ, perhaps significantly, from those that could be obtained by selling the assets. In accordance with the provisions of IAS/IFRS and current laws, the company authorised the publication of the Report in accordance with the law.

Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position NON-CURRENT ASSETS Non-current assets totalled approximately EUR 1,087.8 million at 31 March 2013, compared with EUR 1,060.6 million at 31 December 2012. Intangible and tangible assets This item includes goodwill (EUR 208.9 million), other intangible assets (EUR 102.8 million) and tangible assets (EUR 3.3 million). Goodwill chiefly relates to the goodwill accounted for in respect of the acquisition of 100% of FARE Holding (now DeA Capital RE) and of IDeA Capital Funds SGR, and the controlling interests in IFIM and FIMIT SGR. Other intangible assets mainly relate to customer contracts, which arise from the allocation of the merger cost for the acquisition of IDeA Capital Funds SGR and FIMIT SGR and are recorded separately from goodwill. Equity investments in associates This item, which totalled EUR 304.7 million at 31 March 2013 (EUR 296.4 million at 31 December 2012), relates to the assets set out below.

- the equity investment in Santé is valued at approximately EUR 229.6 million (EUR 226.1 million at 31 December 2012); the change compared with 31 December 2012 was due to profit booked in the income statement of EUR 3.1 million and other positive changes totalling EUR 0.4 million - the investment in Sigla Luxembourg is valued at approximately EUR 12.1 million (EUR 12.3 million at 31 December 2012). The change compared with 31 December 2012 is due to the loss made in the period - the units held in IDeA OF I were reported at around EUR 53.2 million (EUR 48.1 million at 31 December 2012). The change is attributable to capital calls of EUR 4.5 million, an increase of EUR 1.1 million in fair value and a pro-rata net loss for the period of EUR 0.5 million - the equity investment in Harvip Investimenti is valued at approximately EUR 0.8 million, in line with the figure registered at 31 December 2012 - the units held in the AVA fund is valued at approximately EUR 7.7 million, in line with the figure recorded at 31 December 2012.

Available-for-sale investments At 31 March 2013, the DeA Capital Group was a minority shareholder of Kenan Investments (the indirect parent company of Migros), Stepstone, Alkimis SGR, two US companies operating in the biotech and printed electronics sectors, TLcom Capital LLP (management company under English law) and TLcom II Founder Partner SLP (limited partnership under English law). The equity investment in Kenan Investments is recorded in the consolidated financial statements to 31 March 2013 at EUR 239.8 million (EUR 223.6 million at 31 December 2012). The increase of EUR 16.2 million was due to the rise in the value of Migros shares (TRY 22.7 per share at 31 March 2013, compared with approximately TRY 21.5 per share at 31 December 2012, and the strengthening of the Turkish lira against the euro (2.31 TRY/EUR at 31 march 2013 versus 2.36 TRY/EUR at 31 December 2012). The effect of this change in fair value on the DeA Capital Group’s NAV was partially offset by the provisioning of estimated carried interest of around EUR -14.5 million, to be paid to the lead investor, BC Partners, based on the total capital gain. The table below provides details of equity investments in other companies at 31 March 2013 by area of activity.

Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets totalled EUR 3.1 million at 31 March 2013, compared with EUR 2.8 million at 31 December 2012. Loans and receivables This item totalled EUR 28.1 million at 31 March 2013 (compared with EUR 27.4 million at 31 December 2012). It relates to loans to the senior management of GDS for the capital increase at Santé, as part of the equity plan involving shares in the latter, and to the quasi-equity loan between DeA Capital Investments S.A. and Santé S.A. (EUR 26.0 million). . Other non-current assets This item, which came in at EUR 57.2 million at 31 March 2013, is in line with the figure at 31 December 2012, and mainly relates to the receivable from the Beta Immobiliare Fund concerning the final variable commission. This receivable corresponds to the share of the overperformance fee that has accrued since the fund was launched and which IDeA FIMIT SGR expects to receive when the fund is liquidated.

CURRENT ASSETS Current assets were approximately EUR 80.0 million at 31 March 2013, compared with EUR 66.9 million at 31 December 2012; at the end of the first quarter of 2013, the item comprised:

EUR 52.3 million in cash and cash equivalents (EUR 29.2 million at 31 December 2012)

EUR 5.2 million in available-for-sale financial assets, held as a temporary

investment of excess cash EUR 25.8 million relating to tax receivables under the tax consolidation scheme,

other receivables from tax authorities and trade receivables (EUR 32.0 million at 31 December 2012).

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY At 31 March 2013, group shareholders’ equity was approximately EUR 744.2 million, compared with EUR 723.1 million at 31 December 2012. The increase of about EUR 21.1 million in group shareholders' equity in the first quarter of 2013 was chiefly due to the reasons already discussed in the Statement of Performance - IAS 1 (EUR +21.7 million) and to the effects of the share buy-back plan (EUR -0.9 million). NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES At 31 March 2013, non-current liabilities totalled approximately EUR 193.2 million, compared with EUR 173.5 million at 31 December 2012. Deferred tax liabilities This item totalled EUR 25.7 million at 31 March 2013, compared with EUR 25.7 million at 31 December 2012. It mainly includes deferred tax liabilities relating to the tax effects of allocating part of the acquisition cost of the subsidiaries in the purchase price allocation (PPA) phase. End-of-service payment fund The end-of-service payment fund, at EUR 3.2 million, is a defined benefit plan, and has therefore been valued using actuarial assessments. Non-current financial liabilities Non-current financial liabilities totalled EUR 162.2 million (EUR 142.8 million at 31 December 2012), and mainly relate to:

EUR 120.0 million for the use of the credit line provided by Mediobanca

EUR 12.2 million for the use of a credit line taken out by subsidiary IDeA FIMIT SGR EUR 25.8 million relating to the vendor loan to acquire the tranche of mezzanine

Share buy-back plan

On 19 April 2013, the shareholders’ meeting authorised the Board of Directors to buy and sell, on one or more occasions, on a rotating basis, a maximum number of ordinary shares in the company representing a stake of up to 20% of share capital. The plan replaced and revoked the previous plan approved by the shareholders’ meeting on 17 April 2012 (which was scheduled to expire on 17 October 2013) and will pursue the same objectives as the previous plan, including the purchase of own shares to be used for extraordinary transactions and share incentive schemes, to offer shareholders a means of monetarising their investment, to stabilise the share price and to regulate trading within the limits of current legislation. The authorisation specifies that purchases may be carried out up to the date of the shareholders’ meeting to approve the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2013, and in any event, not beyond the statutory maximum duration, in accordance with all the procedures permitted by current regulations, and that DeA Capital may also sell the shares purchased for the purposes of trading, without time limits. The unit price for the purchase of the shares will be set on a case-by-case basis by the Board of Directors, but must not be more than 20% above or below the share’s reference price on the trading day prior to each purchase. In contrast, the authorisation to sell own shares already held in the company’s portfolio, and any shares bought in the future, was granted for an unlimited period, to be implemented using the methods considered most appropriate and at a price to be determined on a case-by-case basis by the Board of Directors, which must not, however, be more than 20% below the share's reference price on the trading day prior to each individual sale (apart from in certain exceptional cases specified in the plan). Sale transactions may also be carried out for trading purposes. On the same date, the Board of Directors voted to launch the plan to buy and sell own shares authorised by the shareholders’ meeting, and to this end vested the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer with all the necessary powers, to be severally and with full power of delegation. Stock option and performance share plans

On 19 April 2013, the shareholders’ meeting approved the DeA Capital Stock Option Plan 2013–2015, and the Board of Directors of DeA Capital S.p.A., implementing the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting, voted: (i) to implement the DeA Capital stock option plan for 2013-2015 approved by the shareholders’ meeting, vesting the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer will all necessary powers, to be exercised severally and with full power of delegation; and (ii) to allocate a total of 1,550,000 options to certain employees of the company, its subsidiaries and the parent company De Agostini S.p.A. who carry out important roles for the company. In line with the criteria specified in the regulations governing the DeA Capital Stock Option Plan for 2013–2015, the Board of Directors also set the exercise price for the options allocated on today’s date at EUR 1.289, which is the arithmetic mean of the official prices of ordinary DeA Capital shares on the Mercato Telematico Azionario, the Italian screen-based trading system organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., on the trading days between 19 March 2013 and 18 April 2013. The shareholders’ meeting also approved a paid capital increase, in divisible form, without option rights, via the issue of a maximum of 2,000,000 ordinary shares to service the DeA Capital stock option plan for 2013-2015. The shareholders’ meeting also approved the performance share plan for 2013-2015. On the same date, to implement the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting, voted: (i) to implement

the DeA Capital Performance Share Plan for 2013-2015 approved by the shareholders’ meeting, vesting the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer with all the necessary powers, to be exercised severally and with full power of delegation; and (ii) to allocate a total of 393,500 units (representing the right to receive ordinary shares in the company free of charge, under the terms and conditions of the plan) to certain employees of the company, its subsidiaries and of the parent company De Agostini S.p.A. who carry out important roles for the company. The shares allocated due to the vesting of units will be drawn from the own shares already held by the company so that the allocation will not have a dilutive effect. The shareholders’ meeting also approved the Company’s Remuneration Policy pursuant to art. 123-ter of the Testo Unico della Finanza law. Outlook The outlook continues to focus on the strategic guidelines followed last year, with an emphasis on increasing the value of assets in the Private Equity Investment area and developing Alternative Asset Management platforms. In general terms, the economic environment – about which it is still difficult to make forecasts – will influence the industrial and economic performance of the Group’s assets, as well as the outlook for returns on the investments made. The Group believes, however, that it has built a portfolio that is highly “resistant” to shocks and one that can, at the same time, benefit from improvements in the economic environment, particularly, in financial markets, which significantly influence expectations of an increase in the value of investments and the raising of new funds. At the same time, in support of the strategic guidelines set out above, the company will continue to maintain a solid asset and financial structure, implementing any initiative with rigour and discipline.
